Golf instructor insurance covers risks and liabilities like client injury, third-party property damage, damage to rented equipment, legal defense costs, and medical payments.

With occurrence form coverage, you can file a claim at any time for incidents related to injuries or damages that happen during your policy.*

Do Golf Instructors Need Liability Insurance?

Yes, many golf courses, country clubs, and sports facilities require instructors to show proof of insurance.

Accidents happen when you least expect it, and lawsuits or surprise medical claims like these can seriously threaten your business:

  • Your student is upset and sues you, claiming you did not make them a pro golfer.
  • Your student accidentally crashes a golf cart into another cart full of golfers, causing injuries and property damage.
  • You mistakenly use a copyrighted photo in your advertisements.
  • You fail to ask about prior injuries and a client aggravates a bad hip, causing them to miss a big work meeting.

Even if you are not at fault for these incidents, you can still face large legal fees and time off the course to defend yourself in court.

Golf instructor liability insurance helps you pay for attorneys, lost wages, medical care, damaged property, and fighting wrongful lawsuits to protect your reputation.

Plus, our occurrence form coverage makes it easy to cover accidents with lasting effects, like a student injury causing later medical complications.
